Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley is right around the corner and ahead of the main event bout on Showtime, it is being heard that Paul and Woodley both will be tested for PEDs by the Ohio commission. But, that will take place following the fight tonight. Initially, there was an issue with the number of test kits available. Thatâs been rectified. Mike Bohn had previously reported there wouldnât be testing, which was correct at the time but it has now changed.

Tyron Woodley sends a message to Jake Paul ahead of their fight
Three days before their fight, Woodley went after Paul during their final press conference at the Hilton hotel for what Woodley views as embarrassing behavior while trying to sell their fight. Jake Paul Drops Pregnancy Bombshell
âYeah, Iâm almost falling asleep over here because itâs kinda disgusting,â Woodley said. âItâs kinda disgusting. Itâs kinda disgusting. Itâs kinda disgusting how much of a clown people feel they have to be to be recognized. Itâs disgusting how much clout people have to chase. And when you really look into what the word clout means, itâs the appearance of authenticity. Itâs appearance that youâre the real deal. Itâs appearance that you really about that action. But Iâm really like that.
âAt the end of the day, walking around, looking foolish â where the f—- is your shirt at, number one? Number two, you know, you can say what you wanna say, but you do what you think youâre supposed to do, based upon what weâve done. When I say we, I say fighters. Jumping up on the ring and screaming and yelling and doing the memes, and all this other stuff, the whole money thing, the whole bling thing, thatâs all to build a fight. But we here. I ainât got sh!t to say. You gettinâ hurt on Sunday, in a way you ainât never felt.â
The YouTube star before beginning his boxing career had quickly knocked out YouTube rival Ali Eson Gib, former NBA point guard Nate Robinson and retired UFC fighter Ben Askren, Woodleyâs friend, since he made his pro boxing debut in January 2020. But, Paul will witness something different when he faces Woodley as he said:
âAll your sugar-coatinâ-ass, cheerleadinâ-ass, f——â cheerleadinâ-ass people thatâs around you have lied to you,â Woodley said. âTheyâre not hurting you. They donât wanna lose they bag. Theyâre not f——- pushing you. So, when you get in there Sunday, you can wear whatever you wanna wear, you can come out with that dumb-ass robot, you can do whatever you want â you will get f——- knocked out. You can make as many bets â the only thing I betted on is myself. And Iâve been betting on that the whole time.â
